  "account": "Two dino movies, Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie and The End Of Oak Street, battled for third place in their first weekend at North American theaters. The two very different dinosaur films brought in a combined US$46.5 million from domestic screenings, but neither managed to unseat Spider-Man from its number one position or climb to second place, which belonged to The Odyssey. Spider-Man: Brand New Day has continued to dominate the box office, three weekends into its record-breaking run, with a staggering US$785.8 million domestic total and over US$2 billion globally – only the eighth movie ever to reach that milestone, and the second-fastest to do so.",
